Phase 2 – Compass Coming Soon
The Coming Soon phase is a pivotal step that allows us to broaden your reach publicly and control the marketing details before it is listed on the MLS where negative insights attack. During this exclusive window, buyers who inquire receive the most accurate and helpful information directly from someone fully dedicated to your best interests and the success of your listing.

Now armed with more feedback and engagement insights on how buyers interact with your listing, we can confirm our marketing and pricing strategy or allow for strategic adjustments before your public launch.
Improve Google Ranking 04
Improve the chance of ranking higher on Google search results because search engines often prioritize the sites of origin.
Ensure Buyer Ability to Contact YOUR Agent

A TARGETED APPROACH TO SELLING YOUR HOME
THE SELLER PROCESS AT A GLANCE
THE BENEFITS OF WORKING WITH A COOPERATING BROKER
Working with a professional buyer’s agent can provide a host of benefits you may not have considered. In partnership with a buyer’s agent, I can show your home in its best light to a widened pool of qualified buyers and ensure a more efficient contract-to-close process for everyone involved.
Increased Exposure For Your Listing
More eyes means more interest. A buyer’s agent can help get your listing in front of interested buyers they are currently representing, which maximizes your home’s exposure in a competitive market. By listing as a Compass Private Exclusive, you can even pre-market your home to buyers and the agents they are working with to build early demand before launching to the public.
More Qualified Buyers
Working with a buyer’s agent helps increase the likelihood that your home will be seen by qualified and vetted buyers who are educated about the market and ready to transact.
Seamless Contract-to-Close
Buyer agents provide guidance, counseling, and support to buyers throughout the contract-to-close process to troubleshoot and resolve potential issues. Having dedicated agents on both sides of the deal will ensure an objective approach and increase the likelihood of a seamless transaction.
Reduced Liability & Exposure
Having professional representation more readily ensures that the buyer completes their investigations to their satisfaction, thoroughly reviews and understands seller disclosures, and completes each required step. The result? A well-informed client without buyer’s remorse.
THE BENEFITS OF OFFERING
BUYER AGENT COMPENSATION
In the United States, real estate commissions can be paid by the seller, listing agent or the buyer. Continuing the practice of offering buyer compensation by the seller or listing agent increases the likelihood of having a professional buyer’s agent on the other side of the transaction and provides you with a number of advantages.
By paying commission or authorizing your listing broker to pay commission, you have potential to:
Increase Interest From Qualified Buyers
When you offer compensation to the buyer’s agent, the property may become more attractive to serious buyers and increase its exposure, a critical advantage in competitive markets. This also makes your home more accessible to a wider pool of buyers, some of whom might have limited cash for upfront costs.
Secure a Higher Purchase Price
If buyers don’t need to reserve funds for commission, they may be able to offer a higher purchase price.
Sell Faster
Removing the financial burden on buyers can help reduce the time your property is on the market.
Simplify Negotiations
With commission costs off the table, negotiations are less complex, allowing all parties to stay focused on the property’s price, which streamlines the negotiation.
PRICING YOUR PROPERTY TO MAXIMIZE BUYER ACTIVITY
Timing of Buyer Activity
A property receives the most traffic within the first few weeks of hitting the market. It is important to get the price right in order to gain the attention of interested buyers and maximize your home’s position in the market.
Attracting Buyers Using Competitive Pricing
Using competitive analysis, market research, and Compass’ suite of AIpowered tools, we recommend a price for your property to generate the most activity and offers early on before buyers move on to newer listings.
ASSESSING OUR STRATEGY AND MONITORING THE MARKET
Using proprietary tools such as Collections and Insights, we keep you informed of market conditions and traffic to your property.
Collections
Collections allows us to have a collaborative conversation on your home selling process with instant updates on comparable listings and access to insider knowledge previously only available to the agent community.
Insights
Insights is a detailed, custom dashboard that allows us to assess the impact of our online marketing campaigns in real time. By capturing this data, we are abe to further target our ads to buyers most interested in your home.
THE POWER OF PHOTOGRAPHY
Beautiful photography is one of the most powerful tools for selling your home. Compass uses best-in-class photographers to show your home in its best light, make a positive first impression, and attract more buyers.

THE POWER OF THE NUMBER ONE BROKERAGE
WE UNDERSTAND WHAT IT TAKES TO SELL YOUR HOME
Hi, I’m Robert, Founder & CEO of Compass. I started this company because my own mother is an agent and I wanted to create a company that treats its agents as well as they treat clients like you.
I saw how hard my mom worked to make her clients’ dreams come true and it filled me with an appreciation for the importance of home and the difference a talented, ethical professional can make in your real estate experience.
Our goal is to invite only the most well-respected and skilled agents to join Compass and then provide them with what my mom never had: a powerful technology platform, the highest levels of support, and a vast array of gorgeous marketing tools to reach the most qualified buyers all to help serve you better.
Our mission is to help everyone find their place in the world and we would be honored to help you embark on your next chapter.
Sincerely,
Robert Reffkin, Founder & CEO
